The 23-year-old Garcia explained that her focus for 2016 will be on her upcoming film with Piolo Pascual and Dawn Zulueta, as well as the ongoing drama “Pasion de Amor.”

“Actually, I was barely ever there during the entire second half of 2015,” said Garcia, who joined the noontime program three years back. “I don’t think I’ll be returning. Management talked to me and they want me to focus on acting.”
